Is the Yellowww day-time running lights bothering any of u guys??

hi guys~

Is the yellowww day-time running lights bothering any of u guys?? i am planing to change some light bulbs (day time running and turn signal) to match the colour of the xenons this weekend. I was wondering if anyone has done this to their cars...it would be great if anyone can provide me with the size, voltage of the bulbs and with an idea of some quality brands out there. Any help would be highly appreciated, thank u guys~

uhm from what i know the 194 is only 3.x watt and the w5w is using 5 watts so you would need a 168 bulb that operates at 4.9 watt to have the same intensity as the w5w does

dude, that blue turn signal is
Although it's interesting that the daytime running lights over there in Canada are the smaller lights, which is the right ones IMO. Here in the US are the bixenons
